30. Ricky Pierce

30. Ricky Pierce
Arguably the most productive time of Ricky Pierce’s career was the time he spent with the Seattle SuperSonics where he spent the bulk of his time as the starting Shooting Guard.  Pierce would be named to his only All Star Team in the year he was traded from Milwaukee to Seattle and would average a very healthy 18.5 Points Per Game tally as a Sonic.
